Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost 15

Comfortable shoe, but owning less than two months as a gym shoe and not running the tread is wearing down too quickly for the price.

I got these primarily for running on gravel. I figured the padding on the bottom would protect feet. I have coworkers who use them day to day that influenced my purchase somewhat. First run - L shoe appears slightly too narrow compared to the right one; my L fifth digit was pretty cramped. Other than that, feet were a little sore but that's expected with new shoes. Second run - L show still a little cramped but otherwise no issue. Third run - I experienced a pretty significant R ankle sprain. Fourth run - easing into it on treadmill vs running on normal gravel with only mild discomfort I. The ankle during the run. L foot still a little cramped but not as bad as it was. Currently ankle still pretty tender and inversion/plantarflexion combo is quite painful. I'm unsure how much the shoe played into it but currently when wearing the Brooks vs wearing some of my other shoes I can feel more stress on my ATFL. This may be entirely psychological. To sum it up: there are some sizing issues for me; possible increased ankle instability secondary to combination of heel height with low rim around ankle but I can't say that for certain; the shoes fee okay but not great to run in (possibly need more time); they look nice.

In general, I always enjoy the Brooks Ghost and would recommend anyone to try a pair on, but this is the first time I haven't enjoyed it. The heal collar doesn't come up high enough in the back. Compared to my Ghost 13, that makes them a downgrade for me. I'm sure most people will still enjoy the shoe, but I can't run comfortably in these this year.

Insoles are way too thin needing to be more substantial under the ball of the feet.

Love the look, is good overall shoe, but, when I read details of shoe, 12mm, heel.., neutral, and looked @ shoe, it " seemed " like it would be a lot like the Adrenaline which I have over 15 pairs of and love!!! Even if it was not quite as good for me, it would have been fine accept it runs a little LARGER, it's mostly my fault I realize this, but - you asked!! I love the Adrenaline, have been getting 3-5 pairs each year since 2018!!!!! Thanks. ( I would have returned them, because your customer service is 2nd to none, but, they looked SO GOOD, i thru box away after opening!!! Again - my mistake

Color in real life is lighter than seen in pics. But the real issue is the laces. The material is such that it keeps getting undone 4-5 times a day. Its a big surprise. First time in 10 years that I have been wearing Brooks

Great comfortable shoe for walking. Disappointed that the right shoe developed a hole in the toe. These are less than 4 weeks old.

Sole has already worn. I wore them on 3 - 5 mile walks and to work. Seems too soft

Not for people with foot problems. Very stiff no cushion to the sole and no extra room in the tie box.

I feel like the 13s, 14s, and 15s are like goldilocks and the 3 bears. Ghost 14s toe box was too tight, Ghost 15s toe box is too wide, and Ghost 13s were perfect. I have arthritis in my feet, toes and bone spurs on the outer side of my feet. Of course the 14s were too tight, but the Ghost 15s with the wider toe box and slightly curves differently on the side makes my feet move more inside the shoes and agitates my arthritic feet. The 14s I returned because they really were uncomfortable. The 15s I feel that I have to keep because now my 13s, which were perfect are getting too old and have too much mileage. I kept the 15s because my feet can tolerate them more than any other shoe I've found, but I feel it agitates my knees because I struggle in them more than the 13s which fit my feet perfectly. Also the shoe laces in the 15s I have to double knot or they come loose. Whatever shoe laces they used for the 13s did not have this issue. I'd be so happy if they just brought back the Ghost 13s and called them Ghost 16s.

I purchased these to replace my Ghost 13 sneakers I got years ago. I found these to be slightly lesser in quality. I debated returning them and trying to find a different go-to sneaker for work, but I did not want to go through all of the trial and error, so I am keeping them and using for the time being

Not a big fan. I have always loved Ghost running shoes. The 15 were way too small in the toe box for me. My knees and back actually didn't feel great after wearing them for a couple of weeks. I will be going back to the 14.

Too roomy in the heel. The heel tends to slip on feet going uphills. Did not have this issues in the same size with the previous version of Ghosts.

Not comfortable in the front part of foot. Just doesn't seem to have much padding as before.

Overall, not a bad shoe. The tongue of the ghost's shoes are too short and not wide enough with more padding. Otherwise, I would have given this five stars.

I love Ghost! But these are Not as comfortable as previous versions of Ghost. They make the bottom my feet hurt. Not sure what the difference is. I'm disappointed.

I thought the Ghost 15's were going to be my new love. As an avid walker, from the moment I put them on I loved how they felt. After being disappointed by a few changes with the Adrenaline's, I thought I would give the Ghosts a try. I've been wearing the Ghosts for about 2 weeks and up until just a few days ago my plantar fasciitis started to flair, I knew it was because of the sneaker (have not had an issue in years). I had switched to the Adrenaline's from another brand because of the same issue and they saved me from PF. Though I had been disappointed by changes with the Adrenaline's, I'll be switching back.

This shoe was a big disappointment for me. It's overpriced for what it is. The color is beautiful however the laces don't stay tied & my feet & legs hurt when I wear them. I've been loving Brooks Ghost for several years now with no Problems, but this one was a huge disappointment for me.

Thought I'd have more toe room. Was advised to buy a 9 1/2, when perhaps I should have a size 10
